Statement from Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine on Health Care Ruling

8/12/2011

Statement of Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine on the ruling today in the U.S. District Court, Eleventh Circuit on the Constitutionality of the federal health care law. It may be attributed, all or in part, to Attorney General DeWine.

"Today's ruling is a significant victory for the states who are challenging the constitutionality of the federal health care law. The judges have agreed with our position that the federal government overreached in its authority to regulate commerce by making Americans purchase health insurance. While this is a significant victory, I do expect that this issue will make its way to the U.S. Supreme Court."
